December 30th
Today we finished up our fair trade shopping in the morning. Although a number of the pieces we purchased have since been sold, you can check out the Pangea Collection Chilean Fair Trade Jewelry Collection. We will also be purchasing more pieces in the near future as copper bracelets and bangles are going to be hot for Fall/Winter fashion.
Copper and Chile are almost synonymous. Copper represents a significant export for Chile and the fair trade jewelry designs using cooper are stunning. As you may also know Lapis is the national stone of Chile so you will find a number of pieces with Lapis.
In addition to Copper and Lapis jewelry, there are a number of fair trade jewelry pieces in the Chilean Fair Trade Jewelry Collection which feature hand blown and painted glass jewelry designs.
This was also the day that we departed Santiago. A note on the Air Canada affiliate lounge in the Santiago airport it’s pretty lousy. It looks like it was decorated in the 1960s or earlier.
The airport shops are pretty good for picking up last minute souvenirs even if not the least expensive. In the airport you will find a number of copper jewelry pieces as well of course of lapis jewelry.
